Lucas arrived at the Sullivan mansion as an orphan with a
vicious burn on his side. The mark is a clue to his past, and the accident that
took his family. The Sullivans gave him a home, raised him as their son, and
made him heir to their fortune. He has everything a man could want, but he’s
tortured by the secrets from his past. He’s a man without a name.

For seventeen years, Lucas has called the Sullivan girls his sisters, but his
feelings for Callie have changed from brotherly to those of a man for a woman.
As the passion between them ignites, Lucas is forced to make a choice between
claiming Callie, or finding out who he is.

On a cold January night, Lucas leaves to follow a clue to Texas, but not before
he has Callie promise, “I will wait for you.”

Secrets unfold, and Lucas discovers the answers he seeks. Is it too late for
Lucas and Callie, or will their love find its way?

About the Author:

Wilhelmina Stolen is the pseudonym for romance writer,
Shannon Hayes. Shannon is a native of Kentucky and makes her home in a small
southern town close to the Tennessee line.

During her adolescence, her mother’s free spirited nature
became restless causing the family to embark on a slew of adventurous moves
across the country. The moves provoked a hunger for adventure and romance and
introduced her to a wonderful world of history and beauty.

As with most writers, her stories began at an early age with
long sessions of seclusion and secrecy. While her classmates and friends were
outside playing, Shannon was locked away in her room hammering out ideas on an
old 1940’s Royal typewriter.

After finding Mr. Right, Shannon found herself wanting the
comfort and security of the small Kentucky town she longed to escape as a
child. Fortune smiled upon her and she became the family historian; gathering
pictures, wills, marriage certificates and everything else that somehow managed
to fall into her lap. Stories flooded her mind and writing quickly became an
obsession that turned into the Way of Hearts Saga.
